National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Queens Park Rangers or Swansea City that keep their silverware dream alive.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Championship. Thankfully the previous game, versus Cardiff City, was also a home game here at Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium. The away team is better rested.

Queens Park Rangers form and stats

Queens Park Rangers participated in FA Cup the last season, where they reached the 5th round.

When playing at home in the Championship, Queens Park Rangers have managed 5 wins, 4 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 14 games.

The Queens Park Rangers supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Cardiff City in Championship and win 6-1. Before that game, the home loss against Hull City with the scoreline 1-2.

As mentioned above, Queens Park Rangers "killed" Cardiff City in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency. Nahki Wells was absolutely essential when Queens Park Rangers beat Cardiff City 6-1, scoring 3 goals.

This is expected to be a close game, with Queens Park Rangers perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage.

Queens Park Rangers has won 4 of these, drawn 2 and lost 8.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (28 in 14 games), Queens Park Rangers's attacking play is working. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 27 goals have been conceded.
